Chapter 665 Intrigue
Seeing that Zhang Lingfu, who was nominated by Chen Shi, was recognized by Principal Chang, He Yingpei's mouth suddenly curled slightly.
He Yingpei said now: "Principal, during this Xiaogan encirclement and annihilation battle, the troops in the Fifth War Zone are the main force participating in the battle, so Sun Lianzhong, commander-in-chief of the Third Corps, and Li Pinxian, commander-in-chief of the Fourth Corps, should also serve as the deputy commander-in-chief of the front enemy!"
Hearing He Yingpei's words, Principal Chang's face immediately collapsed, and he felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.
Originally, the Japanese-study group led by He Yingpei was a faction that Principal Chang focused on eliminating the army, so according to Principal Chang's consistent employment principle, He Yingpei recommended no candidates, but Sun Lianzhong and Li Pinxian had to use it.
Needless to say, Sun Lianzhong was not only a great hero in the Taierzhuang Battle, but also a famous general in the Northwest Army. Whether it was actual or to win over various units of the Northwest Army, it must be used seriously. Therefore, it is natural to be the deputy commander-in-chief of the front-end enemy in the Xiaogan encirclement and annihilation battle.
It is no problem to appoint Li Pinxian as the deputy commander-in-chief of the front enemy.
Principal Chang has already suppressed Bai Chongbei, the magnificent leader, and refused to let him emerge. If Li Pinxian, a backbone of the Guangxi regime, will not be allowed to enter the front enemy command center, the Guangxi regime troops in the fifth war zone will definitely be left unstoppable!
The benefits are not good, and you, Principal Chang's Central Army, have taken over all of our benefits, right?
In any case, half of the participating troops in the Xiaogan encirclement and annihilation battle were our Guangxi troops, right?
But the problem is that this proposal is not appropriate if He Yingpei proposed. If he agreed, Sun Lianzhong and Li Pinxian would not reminisce about his Principal Chang's good deeds, but would only reminisce about He Yingpei's recommendation!
Principal Chang was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to do.
At this moment, a major staff officer hurried in and reported loudly to Liu Sheng: "Director, the head of the Fifth War Zone was urgently sent!"
"The Chief Officer of the Fifth War Zone?" Liu Sheng glanced at Principal Chang and shouted, "Remember!"
"Yes!" The major staff responded, opened the folder and unfolded the telegram, "While the Operations Hall of the Commander's headquarters, although the Japanese Second Army retreated to Xiaogan, there were still nearly 100,000 people. The 15th Division of the Japanese was heading south from Zhengzhou day and night. Therefore, the battle of Xiaogan should be decided quickly, and should not be delayed for a long time."
Speaking of this, the major staff officer continued, "I think there is no need to set up a front-line command for the Battle of Xiaogan. Feng Yuxiang is a veteran of the Party and the State, who can be trusted by the masses, and Zhong Yi is even more capable of serving the Party and the State, who can be competent for the previous line command of Xiaogan! Bai Chongbei, the head of the Fifth War Zone, September 1, 27th of the Republic of China."
As soon as the major staff officer finished reading, everyone present looked at him and turned to President Chang.
Okay, their commander has just set up stools and is ready to sit in a row and split the fruits. As a result, Bai Chongbei immediately came to you like this. This is a big deal!
Bai Chongbei is not an ordinary person!
Bai Chongbei is not only the acting commander-in-chief of the Fifth War Zone, but also the second-in-command of the Guangxi clan, with more than 200,000 elite Guangxi clans in his hands!
What’s even more terrible is that this Xiaogan encirclement and annihilation battle would not work without Bai Chongge’s full cooperation!
If Principal Chang rejected Bai Chongge's suggestion, if Bai Chongge made a fuss, he would make a move out of the front at the critical moment of Xiaogan's encirclement and annihilation battle and let the Japanese 15th Division head south along the Pinghan Line, then Xiaogan would even fart!
Bai Chong doesn’t have to let him be sad, just instruct the Guangxi troops not to fight to the death!
Therefore, Bai Chong's tragic proposal must be considered, and it must be considered seriously!
...
Almost at the same time, the head of the Fifth War Zone in Tongbai County.
Liao Lei, commander-in-chief of the 21st Army, was accompanying Bai Chongbei for a walk under the shade of the tree.
Liao Lei walked, and said indignantly: "Duke Jian, Lao Chiang asked Xue Yue to only take the 74th Army and the 29th Army to participate in the Xiaogan encirclement and annihilation battle, but let our 21st Army block the Japanese army from the south. I have no good intentions!"
After a pause, Liao Lei said again: "If I'm not wrong, in the early stage of the Battle of Xiaogan, Sun Lianzhong's Third Corps and He Gong (Li Pinxian)'s Fourth Corps must be the leader. When the Third Corps, the Fourth Corps, the second army of Dongjiu'er-Ming Niyan, was exhausted for a long time, and Xue Yue would jump out to pick peaches!"
Bai Chong smiled coldly and said, "You are right, there is no doubt about this!"
"Cheng Chiang is still the same thing he used to encircle and suppress the Red Army, using the power to eliminate dissidents!" Liao Lei said, "Our Gui army cannot be used as cannon fodder for him like this!"
Bai Chong said sadly: "That is why I proposed that the Xiaogan Front Command will no longer be established. The Xiaogan encirclement and annihilation battle will be directly commanded by the Wuhan Garrison Command and Zhong Yi!"
After a moment of pause, Bai Chong said again: "This is also what De Gong means."
"What does Degong mean?" Liao Lei was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly said, "Gao, Degong's long-term fishing is really clever. It not only disrupted Chiang Kai-shek's plan, but also won over Zhong Yi! Zhong Yi is such a great man. In time, he will definitely become a big boss in the army. Our Guangxi clan should indeed make friends with him as soon as possible!"
Speaking of this, Liao Lei said again: "But will Jiang Jiang listen?"
Bai Chong smiled sadly and said, "What do you think?"
...
Hankou, Dragon King Temple.
"Ah..." After sleeping for a full 30 hours, Zhong Yi finally woke up from deep sleep, then got up and stretched his waist long. This feeling was so fucking fun!
Hearing the movement, Zhu Liangcheng, Guo Qi and Shen Xian were sitting in a bunch of them, so they turned around and looked over.
"Zi Ren, are you awake?" Zhu Liangcheng raised the bowls and chopsticks in his hand and said with a smile, "Come here and have a meal."
Zhong Yi was not pretentious and immediately walked over and sat down in the empty seat. Shen Xian, who was in the upper hand, handed a pair of chopsticks, and Guo Qi, who was in the lower hand, even made a bowl of rice for Zhong Yi.
Zhong Yi took the bowl and chopsticks and immediately started to eat it.
After eating two big bowls in a row, Zhong Yi's speed began to return to normal.
While eating rice, Zhong Yi asked again: "What's the situation now?"
Zhu Liangcheng replied: "The second army of Dongjiuer Palace Nianyan has retreated to Xiaogan. The two armies of the Second Army, the two armies of the 11th Army, and the two armies of the First Corps have already completed the encirclement of Xiaogan! As long as nothing unexpected happens, the old Japanese devil, Dongjiuer Palace Nianyan, is already hard to fly!"
"It's not slow to move." Zhong Yi said again, "Has the front enemy command been established?"
"That's it." Zhu Liangcheng shook his head, "No, at least the commander's headquarters has no following."
